Definitions
- Some embodiments of the present invention pertain to multicarrier wireless communications, and some embodiments pertain to channel estimation and carrier frequency offset estimation for in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) receivers of wireless local area networks (WLANs).
- MIMO multiple-input multiple-output
- some multicarrier communication stations may desire to receive communications from several transmitting stations concurrently.
- One difficulty with concurrently receiving multiple spatial streams from different transmitting stations is that each transmitting station uses a different oscillator for generating carrier frequencies: Because the oscillators are not synchronized, each carrier frequency may have a different carrier frequency offset that should be compensated for in the receiving station. Furthermore, the channel between each transmitting station and the receiving station may also exhibit different channel characteristics which should also be taken into account by the receiving station.

- Equation (8) ⁇ m and ⁇ circumflex over (D) ⁇ l,n i are known through estimation as described above and is the iteration number.
- Matrix diag(X n ) is a rank-deficient diagonal matrix since it has only a subset (i.e. K/M interleaved tones) of non-zero terms. The zeros are of little concern because those rows don't contribute to ⁇ circumflex over (D) ⁇ l,n so only non-zero terms are inverted while determining the inverse of diag(X n )
